This paper explains the techniques used to measure and analyze the structure of the information economy using input-output modelling. Published national accounts data fail to identify the information economy and the focus is on the measurement of the conventional sectors such as agriculture, manufacturing and services. However, it widely recognized that the information activities are a major generator of national income in this emerging information age.Therefore, the measurement and analysis of the information economy is invaluable for the proper formulation of development policies in the information age. In this paper we demonstrate the operational nature of the techniques proposed here for the measurement of the information economy by their application to Australia and the developing economies of the Pacific.

As the accelerated technological advances of the past two decades continue to reshape the United States' economy, intangible assets and high-technology investments are taking larger roles. These developments have raised a number of concerns, such as: how do we measure intangible assets? Are we accurately appraising newer, high-technology capital? The answers to these questions have broad implications for the assessment of the economy's growth over the long term, for the pace of technological advancement in the economy, and for estimates of the nation's wealth. In Measuring Capital in the New Economy, Carol Corrado, John Haltiwanger, Daniel Sichel, and a host of distinguished collaborators offer new approaches for measuring capital in an economy that is increasingly dominated by high-technology capital and intangible assets. As the contributors show, high-tech capital and intangible assets affect the economy in ways that are notoriously difficult to appraise. In this detailed and thorough analysis of the problem and its solutions, the contributors study the nature of these relationships and provide guidance as to what factors should be included in calculations of different types of capital for economists, policymakers, and the financial and accounting communities alike.
